    Château De Beynac In The Dordogne

    Visit Château de Beynac

    Just a stone’s throw from Sarlat and La Roque-Gageac, and a short journey from us here, is one of the region’s many amazing Châteaux. What sets Château de Beynac apart, however, is the quality of its restoration and upkeep, meaning visitors have access to an amazing piece of medieval history.

    Château de Beynac Through History

    When visiting you will be able to trace the story of the 12th century château and the many famous characters to have spent time within the fortress. Eleanor of Aquitaine and Richard ‘Coeur de Lion’ are just two of the famous names from history.

    The site fell into the hands of the English and Richard the Lionheart for a short period. It was also a crucial strategic post during the 100 years war.

    Stunning Location And Views

    The location of the château offers stunning views not only of the Dordogne River and the valley, but also the lush, undulating countryside for miles around.
